I got my crap in my truck just in case the rain holds off long enough to ride after work. Weekend looks to be a washout.

I went and looked at a Giant OCR3 yesterday on my lunch break - nice bike, but didn't seem to fit me that well... Specialized Allez is next on my list. I really want a Cannondale R700, but there's no way I'm going to be able to scrape together that kind of money for a road bike ($1300).

road ride, I have a short (14.5 mile) road loop from my house.......took me a little longer than last time, maybe twice as long............I flatted with 3 miles left to go :mumble:

Same here. I've been waiting all day to take the new bike out to a local DS run and the rain clouds were waiting and waiting and waiting but no rain.
As soon as I leave work it's like a freakin monsoon.

Even mother nature hates me.

Did some trail maintenance. Just kind of connected the dots so to speak. Cleared Jesus of all the downed logs if anyone cares. Trails around here are in excellent shape heading into the winter all things considered. A wet summers impact was greatly reduced by having less riders on the trails. Kind of cool how that worked out. Should be interesting to see how some of the badly eroded sections fare this winter. Folks should learn to control your bikes so you don't have to ****en skid on the downhills. Saw plenty of folks nightriding. Kind of cool to see. I will ride plenty this weekend if the weather holds out.....jdcamb

Did a bunch of miscellaneous rides yesterday on the Bridgestone. Riding rigid is way different... Picking up the Joker today.

I found that going out on my 575 is so comfortable for long rides, it gives me another reason NOT to buy a road bike.

Yea... I've done a couple 4 hour + rides on the 575 this year, but I want to start riding to work, I want to ride to my dad's house in PA, and I want to be able to ride without having to worry about trail conditions. Oh, and I want to do a century ride too.

Trail riding will always be my preference, but I think I could get into the roadie scene too.

Did a ride at lunch - it was so pretty out. The snowfall the local mountains got is so shocking to see when I look out on the horizon...I'm still getting used to that.
